Abstract: I’ve had my Nintendo Wii since February ’07, I didn’t buy my first game (outside of Wii Sports) until Super Mario Galaxy. Now I have my second game, No More Heroes, and I can’t put my Wii-remote down. I’ve already played through the entire game on Mild...
Abstract: Name: No More HeroesGenre: ActionPlatform: Nintendo WiiThere is a thin line between brilliance and madness, innovation and cliché, depth and frivolity. No More Heroes doesn't dance that line, it is that line. It envelopes it, reinvents it, and makes yo...
Abstract: VIDEO: Head over to our videos page to check out all No More Heroes footage!In a way, No More Heroes is what I'd expected Killer7 to be. The story and tone may be completely different, but it retains much of what made that earlier game so initially app...
Abstract: If you're not interested in No More Heroes, you probably don't have a Wii. Suda 51's nonlinear, pop-otaku, lightsaber ultraviolence epic has been highly anticipated by both action junkies hankering for something more mature to play on their Wiis, and...
The most enjoyable sword combat on the Wii yet; the finishing moves are oh so sweet and satisfying; the game has a ridiculously unique sense of humour; everything from movies to 8-bit gaming gets referenced, and wait until you see the save system!
Doing odd jobs to earn money is boring. Thats not a video game: its a J-O-B. While the art style is cool, the graphics are sort of ugly. If this game had true new-gen graphics, itd be winner winner chicken dinner in every way possible. The boss figh...
No More Heroes easily ranks among the Wiis finest titles, busting a bunch of myths along the way. You say sword-based combat peaked with Twilight Princess? Wait until you slice a suit-wearing crony in half. The Wii cant do mature games? This game doe...
One of the most unique experiences youll have in a game this year; equally funny (and fun) as it is weird.
Controls and gameplay can get a bit redundant; driving sequences are the weakest link.
Grasshopper Manufacture, the team behind No More Heroes, is known for quirky and eccentric titles such as the polarizing killer7. Its creative head, Goichi "Suda 51" Suda, has described his approach to game design as being "punk" in spirit. His latest ...
Abstract: Deciding which game to give our coveted Game of the Month award to is never easy. Some months, we have so many eligible titles that it takes us weeks just to narrow down the choices; other months, were left scrambling to find a decent contender, only ...
Original gameplay separates it from anything currently available, One of the best uses of the Wii controls available yet, Hash and Slash gameplay pleasantly reminiscent of games like Final Fight and Battletoads,
Can get repetitive, Side quests feel more like chores than missions
Joyous, stylized action thats as awesome to perform as it is to watch, Terrific use of motion controls, Highconcept story and bizarre characters deliver plenty of drama and mature humor, Lots of small details and gameplay detours to keep you engaged.
Frame rate gets erratic, Side missions are too short.
This is the mature Wii action title youve been waiting for, and theres nothing else quite like it. ...

Abstract: In the bizarre California metropolis of Santa Destroy, your trainer encourages you to get naked for your workout, and hired goons bemoan the loss of their spleen when cleaved in two. If youve played any of director SUDA-51s previous games, especially...
